Well it looks like you are using some other package (OpenVPN?) which has its
own custom batch files which aren't working properly.
That "bss_file.c" is just to help debug problems. It is indicating the OpenSSL
source file that produced the error.
The first line is a clue:
> Error opening CA private key "C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\easy-rsa\keys"/ca.key
does that file exist? Is it readable?
However since these aren't standard OpenSSL scripts I can't say much more.
You'd get better results asking in any public forum for the package that
included those scripts.
